The Star Wars Poster Book
published in 2005 by Lucasfilm Ltd. rates posters for scarcity and desirability.
This poster has the highest rating possible of 10 STARS.

From the Star Wars Poster
Book: The notorious Star Wars Concert Poster has been laden with
misconceptions and mystery ever since it was produced in 1978. Common lore has
it that this poster was available to purchase for one night only at the
Hollywood Bowl premiere of a Star Wars concert series. However, that concert
where Zubin Mehta conducted the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, took place
on November 20, 1977, almost a full year before the poster was printed in
October 1978. During the run of the tour, a handful of various posters were
commissioned to advertise each specific venue. However, when the management of
the series changed hands in the spring of 1978, it was deemed appropriate to
unify the series under a single key illustration, which was the impetus for this
classic artwork art directed by Suzy Rice and illustrated by John Alvin. But it
isn't clear that these posters were ever available to the public. Therefore,
they are rare and highly desirable.

The rarest of the rare! This
poster comes straight from a former employee of Gore Graphics. Gore was the
company that originally printed these for the studio and NSS back in 1977. The
regular Style C without the PG RATING is extremely rare itself and had a print
run of around 500. It was issued for international use only so it did not need
the U.S. PG Rating. There are zillions of bootlegs/restrikes of that version.
This version with the PG
rating is incredibly rare!
It has been said that well under 100 are in existence. After Star Wars became a
phenomenon, this PG rated version was issued for a few Special U.S. theater
engagements only. THIS IS A
PRINTERS PROOF! In virtually flawless shape too! Printer's proofs normally are handled
by many people and are often thrown away. Those that survive are usually pretty
beat up. Close up picture
of PG RATINGS BOX.

About Printer's Proofs: Before a poster was
printed in large quantities, the printer would print a limited number of test posters. Commonly, they would leave the color chart on the edge
of the poster, which added an extra inch to the width of the poster (which
explains why the poster measures 28" x 41"). These would then
be shown to people in a position to "OK" them. Once they were approved, the
final posters would be printed and the proofs normally were destroyed. A printer's proof
is far more rare than a regular one sheet poster, and there is no fear of purchasing a reproduction.

Tiny 1/4" tear on very top right
border, otherwise flawless. Extremely rare "first printing". NO HAIR ON LUKE'S BELT. NEVER FOLDED.
This poster comes straight from a
former employee of Gore Graphics. Gore was the company that originally printed
these for the studio and NSS back in 1977.
Why is this one more expensive than
other versions of the Style A one sheet?
This version with
NSS # 77/21-0 is the very first printing. The Style A one
sheet was printed at least 5 times in 1977. There are known reprints and/or reproductions of this poster. THIS IS NOT ONE OF
THEM! This is guaranteed to be a genuine ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER issued by the
studio when the film was first released and meant for theatrical display. We are
absolutely certain it is authentic. Bootlegs have a "hair" on Luke's belt area. This does not have the hair. This is the most bootlegged and
reproduced poster on planet Earth! It is extremely difficult to find an
authentic one. About half the ones sent to us for consignment have to be sent
back because they are reproductions.

Gore Graphics was a printing company used by the movie studios and the National
Screen Service (NSS) from the 1970's to the early 1990's. They printed original
movie posters, press books, etc. Gore was acquired by another company in the
1990's.

The Star Wars style A one sheet was officially printed at least 5 separate times
at a few different authorized print shops during the first theatrical run of
Star Wars in 1977. This is evidenced by the differences that can be seen on the
bottom borders of the one sheets. It has been well established by other experts,
dealers and collectors over the years that the one sheets with NSS number
77/21-0 were printed first before all others.

In July 2013 we had an extensive conversation with Mark, a former employee of
Gore Graphics in the 1970's and 80's. Like other former employees at Gore we
have worked with over the years, Mark was allowed to take home posters from time
to time. He has placed on consignment with us several Star Wars printer's proof
one sheets. While meeting with Mark we became aware of a rare PMS color variant
printer's proof for the Star Wars Style A one sheet first printing 77/21-0. Mark
carefully explained about these PMS proofs being the "first of the first" Star
Wars style A one sheets.

CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. These are the primary colors
used in printing. Varying the quantities of these colors creates an endless
array of colors to print.

PMS stands for Pantone Matching
System (PMS). PMS is a simpler system for printers to use. PMS colors can
streamline the process of printing and cut down on cost. There can be so much
variation in color using CMYK that Pantone is sometimes used to help create
consistent color. This way a printer can consistently print from job to job.

These "first of the first" PMS
proofs were printed before the CMYK proofs. Four colors (plates) were used for
both the PMS and CMYK proofs. The PMS process produced a result that was
unacceptable to those in charge (probably George Lucas) so Gore changed to a
standard CMYK process for the subsequent print run which was finally deemed
acceptable. All other print runs used this CMYK process (as far as we know)
making the PMS color proofs much rarer than any CMYK proofs.

The PMS proofs are significantly different. When comparing the CMYK and PMS
proofs side by side, the easiest way to tell the difference is by looking at the
color bars. The PMS proofs have orange included in the color bar, CMYK has
yellow.

The rarest of the rare!! The
regular Style C without the PG RATING is extremely rare itself and had a print
run of around 500. It was issued for international use only so it did not need
the U.S. PG Rating. There are zillions of bootlegs/restrikes of that version.
This version with the PG
rating is incredibly rare!
It has been said that well under 100 are in existence. After Star Wars became a
phenomenon, this PG rated version was issued for a few Special U.S. theater
engagements only. THIS IS A
PRINTERS PROOF!! In virtually flawless shape too! Printer's proofs normally are handled
by many people and are often thrown away. Those that survive are usually pretty
beat up. Close up picture

(some say more) and it was
sold/given away at the San Diego Comic Con and in comic book stores to
promote the Marvel comic book. Extremely rare
and highly sought after, these very rarely are offered for sale. Most probably did not survive because at the time no
one knew what a phenomenon Star Wars would become.

poster!! Originally printed on four separate pieces. Featured on the

minor storage wear including a few small edge tears and one large tear on the
bottom left section up to the letter "T" repaired on the back with acid free
archival removable tape. When linen backed and displayed this will appear MINT!!

The following text was taken from
the Star Wars Poster Book 2005: "The large seven-sheet Advance is formally
called an "out-of-home" poster, since most were printed for small billboards and
transit stations. These were probably distributed to just Los Angeles, New York,
and San Francisco, which had the only theaters to open Star Wars in 70mm, a fact
called out on the poster. The poster is unique because it is the only one that
has the May 25 release date, a date immortalized by Star Wars fans."

ROLLED UNUSED EX-NM
C8-C9$3295.00
SOLD Special Order

To collectors, some of the most
desired posters are the Advances for Star Wars. Very hard to come by in any
condition. Extremely rare. Originally issued flat, many mylars were subsequently
folded after their initial use by theater managers for storage. Difficult to photograph because it has a
shiny mirror like finish. The Mylar Advance was the FIRST theater issued poster
for Star Wars. The "W' in the STAR WARS logo is different and was later changed.
This particular poster is UNUSED No pin holes, no tape, no tears.
There are no known bootlegs or reprints of this poster. You will not find a
nicer one anywhere.

Unused!! Well
preserved. Very little general storage wear. Some very light ripples in the
mylar (we have never seen a perfect mylar without ripples), most notably
across the top through the word "TO" and across the bottom through "WARS".
This was stored rolled but lying flat, so there are light "waves", but these
won't be visible when framed. The picture shown was taken on a vacuum table
where it is pulled flat. Click
here to see what the waves look like when it is not pulled flat.
If you look carefully you can see that it was cut slightly uneven on the top
right. It has NOT been trimmed, it was originally cut that way when
it was printed.

The second advance is even

Now appears Near Mint to Mint!
One of the RAREST original Star Wars movie posters. These hardly ever surface. The initial theatrical
release of Star Wars was so popular that some theaters were still playing it
a year after it first came out in 1978! This poster was issued to those few
theaters. According to long time Star Wars poster experts it is rumored that
there were only 250-500 printed, although no one can absolutely positively
confirm this. Almost impossible to find.

This is what all you
STAR WARS fans
have been waiting for! This is considered by many collectors to be the
ultimate STAR WARS poster! This is a genuine 28"
x 41" U.S. one
sheet ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER PRINTER'S PROOF. Rolled, never folded. These
hardly ever surface. The initial theatrical release of Star Wars was so
popular that some theaters were still playing it a year after it first came
out! This poster was issued to those few theaters. Long time Star Wars
poster experts have always said that there were only 250 to 500 regular
issue (non proofs) printed. Please be aware that there is no way that anyone
can absolutely confirm this. Almost impossible to find!! This is an uncut
PRINTERS PROOF!!
There are just a handful of proofs in existence of this one sheet!!

Straight from a former
employee who used to work at Gore Graphics in the 1970's. Gore Graphics
printed many of the posters for the National Screen Service. We have a few
other proofs from this source, and some of them are one of a kind!

Before a poster was printed
in large quantities, the printer would print a limited number of test
posters. Commonly, they would leave the color chart on the left edge of the
poster, which added an extra inch to the width of the poster (which explains
why the poster measures 28" x 41"). These would then be shown to people in a
position to "OK" them. Once they were approved, the final posters would be
printed and the proofs normally were destroyed. A printer's proof is far
more rare than a regular one sheet poster, and there is no fear of
purchasing a reproduction.

These can be very difficult
to find in any condition! A long time can go by without one of these coming
up for sale. You will have trouble finding a nicer one.

UNUSED AND UNRESTORED!!
ROLLED, never folded. No tears, no tape, no pin holes. Virtually flawless!!

Finding rolled/never folded
one sheets for most titles prior to the mid 1980's is EXTREMELY difficult!
Most collectors will pay a HUGE premium for a rolled one sheet compared to a
folded one in the same condition. If a vintage poster is in terrific
unrestored condition like this one (EX C8 or better), many experienced
collectors will place a premium on it (when compared to a linen
backed/restored one). Most experienced collectors prefer unrestored items to
restored ones because they believe they will appreciate more in value.

When buying collectibles it
is always wise to buy "the best of the best" as they stand a greater chance
of appreciation. This poster is considered to be within that class and is
definitely INVESTMENT QUALITY.

This is NOT a reprint or
reproduction poster! It is a REAL ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER Printer's Proof. We
are absolutely certain it is authentic.

FOR THIS POSTER
WE WILL ONLY ACCEPT BANK WIRE, CASH, CHECKS, CASHIER'S CHECKS, OR MONEY ORDERS. Full

Yes, this does
have the GAU logo on the bottom. This is not one of the bootlegs.

THIS IS THE
ONLY ONE OF THESE WE HAVE EVER SEEN! This is a beautiful example of an
original ADVANCE 28"x41" U.S. one sheet movie poster from the classic "STAR
WARS". These are very difficult to find in any condition! This is the rarest of
the rare! This is a PRINTER'S PROOF!

EX-NM C8-C9 $1095.00
Special Order

Virtually impossible to find a
rolled original with GAU logo in NM condition. Close up picture of bottom. jkn

There
are known fakes/bootlegs (always popping up on ebay) of the Style B Advance.
They are usually rolled and appear without the GAU logo. These criminals are
having difficulty selling them because word has spread, so they now lightly fold
them to make them appear more authentic. They advertise them for a low buy it
now price of $95.00. We
guarantee ours to be an original. Yes, it has the GAU logo.

All reputable dealers and advanced
collectors believe that this poster WITHOUT the GAU logo is a bootleg/fake/restrike. Its
origin is not known for sure, but it is believed that sometime during the early
1980's some unscrupulous printers got their hands on the original printing
plates and ran off thousands of these (as well as the Star Wars Style A and C).
It is a very convincing bootleg and is almost indistinguishable from the
original. The easiest way to tell is by the absence of the GAU logo. The paper
is also thicker and overall the graphics are a little blurrier. They
usually appear rolled, but some people have folded them to make them appear more
authentic. Criminals on ebay are now describing them as "lightly
folded".......this means they have a ton of rolled ones they can't sell so now
they are folding them themselves!! We
offer it for collectors so they can compare it to known originals.
Picture.
Picture.

We stopped selling these about two
years ago, but we keep getting requests for them!!!! We offer it for collectors
so they can compare it to known originals. Only 1 in stock. If you can't afford
an original, this is as close as you'll get!!

The Style A one sheet is the most well known, most collected,
most reprinted, and most bootlegged movie poster in
history. Just about everyone knows this image. Because there was an extremely
high demand for the Style A one sheet back in 1977 when the film was released, there
were at least 4 different original printings. They all have
slightly different markings on the very bottom:

Version 1
Has across the bottom border "one sheet - style A" and the NSS number as
"77/21-0". Most experts believe that this is the first printing,
and there is a lot of "circumstantial evidence" to support this, but, this can
not be said with 100% certainty. Because of this belief, this poster commands a
premium over the other versions.
There is a bootleg of this version! The infamous "Luke's Hairy Belt" bootleg.

Version 2
The "FUNKY TEXT"
version.
Has "one sheet - style 'A'" across the bottom border with the NSS number as
"77/21" and "Star Wars" written under it in a funky looking typestyle. It is
believed by some that this may be the first printing, although this can not be
proven. This version has NO known bootlegs.

Version 3
Has "one sheet - style 'A'" across the bottom border with the NSS number as
"77/21".

Version 4
Doesn’t have the tag but just the NSS number "77/21" and "Star Wars" written
under it.

This one sheet was issued measuring 27" x 41" and was usually folded. Rolled
ones do exist but they are quite rare.
Always be very careful when purchasing a rolled Star Wars poster due to the many
known reprints and bootlegs.
There are a ton of rolled ones that are not original and are from the 1980's Fan
Club. These are a full 27" x 41" and look almost identical to originals except
they have a hair on
Luke's belt area picture.
The most common one sheet
reprints measure 27" x 40" instead of 27" x 41". Some criminals carefully lightly hand
fold the bootlegs to make them appear more authentic...so beware!!

BEWARE of 27"x41" Card Stock Style A One
Sheets

They are Video Release posters from the
1980's.

All original release 27" x 41" Style A
one sheets from 1977 are on regular paper stock. The only "original" one sheets
from the 1977 theatrical release that are on CARD STOCK measure 30"x40". The 27" x 41" VIDEO card stock posters
appear VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL to the original release 1977 one sheet. They were printed for VIDEO STORES
when Star Wars was released on video in the 1980's.

UNUSED! Other than a teeny
tiny 1/8" tear off on the top right corner this poster is near perfect. No tape, no
pin holes, no writing, no stains. No hairy belt! Guaranteed authentic.

The style A one
sheet was printed at least 4 times in 1977. This version with NSS # 77/21-0 is
the first printing. This one always commands a premium over the other versions.
There are known reprints and/or reproductions of this poster. THIS IS NOT ONE OF
THEM! This is guaranteed to be a genuine ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER issued by the
studio when the film was first released and meant for theatrical display. We are
absolutely certain it is authentic. Bootlegs have a "hair" on Luke's belt area.
This does not have the hair. See close up photo. This is the most bootlegged and
reproduced poster on planet Earth! It is extremely difficult to find an
authentic one. About half the ones sent to us for consignment have to be sent
back because they are reproductions. Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

UNUSED! Practically flawless
condition! No tears, no tape, no pin holes, no writing, no stains. Extremely rare "first printing"
(see above). NO HAIR ON LUKE'S BELT. NEVER FOLDED.
Measures exactly 27" x 41 1/8".
Rolled ones are almost IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND! Why is this one more expensive than the others? Many experts believe
this version with NSS # 77/21-0 is the first printing of the Star Wars one sheet. Although this
can't be confirmed, many collectors are still willing to pay a premium for
it. Close up picture
of Luke's belt area. Close up picture of bottom. Another super close up picture.

We
offer this to other dealers and collectors for reference so they can compare it to known originals.

Whatever one wishes to call these.....fakes, bootlegs.
reproductions, reprints, unauthorized restrikes,
counterfeits, one thing is certain. They are not original
movie posters.

Back in the late 1980's someone got their hands on the original
printing elements for 3 Star Wars one sheets. The Style A version
77/21-0, The Style B Teaser Advance, and the Style C International.
They illegally printed untold thousands of posters. The quality of
them is first class, they are extremely convincing!! They were most
likely printed at the same place where the originals were (an NSS
printing facility), except it was done "after hours" by unscrupulous
employees.

These were peddled by a guy named Seymour to poster dealers around
the world for about $5.00 to $7.00 each. They were described as
"originals". Some dealers were fooled, some knew they weren't
real....but bought them anyway, and some refused to have anything to
do with them.

The Official Star Wars fan club actually purchased several thousand
of the fake Style A's back in the late 1980's believing they were
real. They even distributed many of them to members!! As soon as
they found out they weren't authentic one sheets they stopped
distributing them and were most likely destroyed.

George Lucas eventually got wind of all this and went after the guy
who was selling them.

Usually, reprints are undersized. Not these. They all measure a full
27" x 41".

There are subtle printing defects / differences between originals
and reprints. On the Style A there is a
small "hair" right below Luke's belt (PICTURE),
on the Style B Teaser the GAU printing union logo on the bottom
border is missing, and on the Style C there is a small "hair" on
Leia's back. The paper quality is first rate as well, we see
virtually no real difference when comparing fakes to originals
except that the paper may be ever so slightly thicker on the fakes.
Some have said that the fakes have a different sheen. If they do it
is very slight.

As of June 2013, these 3 fakes are still being sold on eBay
(described as originals) by several shady poster dealers. Prices are
usually between $100.00 to $200.00. (Original rolled near mint
unused Star Wars one sheets routinely sell for over $1000.00). These
dealers usually swear up and down that the reprints are
real.....that they are an alternate printing, or from a warehouse
find, or a garbage run from the factory etc., etc, etc. Their excuse
always seems plausible. They know they are not real, yet they really
don't care.

Since word about these fakes has spread and it has become common
knowledge in the collecting community (and thus, more difficult to
sell), these shady dealers have begun to lightly fold them, put pin
holes in them, and even get them linen backed to try and make them
appear more authentic.

Why doesn't eBay stop them? EBay is in no position to be the "poster
police". How do you expect them to determine what is real and what
is not? Unless they are ever contacted by Lucasfilm (which we really
don't see happening as they closed the book on this 20 years ago)
the rip off of new Star Wars collectors will continue.

Every now and then a collector will send us one of these fakes for
us to put on consignment. We will sell it for what it truly
is.....properly described as NOT an original movie poster. We get
requests all the time from collectors who would like to see one in
person, to have one for reference. We usually do not have any in
stock.

In January 2009 we acquired an original undisturbed roll of 300 Style A
77/21-0 reprints from a dealer who purchased them direct from
Seymour back in 1989. As soon as she realized she was ripped off
and that they weren't real, she put them in a closet and tried
to forget about them. She realized that she should have known
better, that it was too good to be true. They are all in Near Mint to Mint unused
condition.

We have put a small 1/2" x 2" ink stamp on the back of each
one that says: "THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER".

Again, these are THE SAME EXACT posters currently being sold by
others on ebay (wrongly described as originals) for over
$100.00.

This is an extremely high quality bootleg poster. It has
fooled practically every major auction house in the past as well
as most of the top poster dealers.

The nicest one we have ever
seen! Guaranteed to be
an original theatrical release movie poster issued at the time of the films
initial release. The 30x40 was not printed in any where near the
quantities of the regular US one sheet and is
EXTREMELY RARE COMPARED TO A ONE SHEET. A vertical format
American movie poster printed on a very heavy card stock
material. Most 30" x 40"’s feature the same artwork as the one sheet and were
issued rolled to the theatre exchanges. The National Screen Service number is
normally found on the side on the poster, as opposed to the lower bottom as is
the case with one-sheets. VERY difficult to find in Near Mint condition because
the card stock can crease easily. Does not need to be backed or restored. Studios have stopped issuing these.

This poster has been GEL
SIZED. This is a proprietary
minimally invasive poster conservation method. When a poster has gone
through the Gel Sizing process, it has been flattened, cleaned and
de-acidified. The paper is impregnated with a purified form of sea
gelatin which greatly strengthens the paper and physically eliminates
creases and fold lines. It is NOT mounted to anything once completed, and
the finished poster will remain dimensionally stable even after exposure to
changes in atmospheric conditions. This
poster now appears Near Mint-Mint flawless!

This poster is virtually
impossible to find in this great condition!! A 40x60 would cost the
theater up to 20 times as much as a one sheet to rent. Only a few hundred
were printed, and it was only printed once. Unlike the
regular one sheet which was printed in quantities of over 10,000.
EXTREMELY RARE COMPARED TO A ONE SHEET. VERY difficult to find in Near
Mint condition
because the card stock can crease easily. This poster has very very light
staining (ONLY along the very bottom 1" border though), and it is only
noticeable upon close inspection. It doesn't even show in our high
resolution photo. Otherwise, this poster would grade NM+ C9+. This is truly
the nicest one we have ever seen as most 40x60's are pretty beat up. Someone
took very good care of this one.

BEWARE! It is very difficult to find an

less than 500) and many have not survived. Sometime during the 1980's there
were many thousands of these that were illegally re-printed. The prints are so
good that it is believed that the forgers somehow got their hands on the
original printing plates. The fake is darker, the writing on the bottom

This version with the PG
rating is incredibly rare!
It has been said that well under 100 are in existence. After Star Wars became a

There are NO KNOWN bootlegs of this version

BOOTLEG
- NOT AN ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER

1
in stock. We
offer this to other dealers and collectors for reference so they can compare it to known originals.

All reputable dealers and advanced
collectors believe that this poster WITH THE HAIR ON LEIA'S BACK is a bootleg/fake/restrike. Close up picture
of the hair on Leia's back.

Whatever one wishes to call these.....fakes, bootlegs.
reproductions, reprints, unauthorized restrikes,
counterfeits, one thing is certain. They are not original
movie posters.

Back in the late 1980's someone got their hands on the original
printing elements for 3 Star Wars one sheets. The Style A version
77/21-0, The Style B Teaser Advance, and the Style C International.
They illegally printed untold thousands of posters. The quality of
them is first class, they are extremely convincing! They were most
likely printed at the same place where the originals were (an NSS
printing facility), except it was done "after hours" by unscrupulous
employees.

These were peddled by a guy named Seymour to poster dealers around
the world for about $5.00 to $7.00 each. They were described as
"originals". Some dealers were fooled, some knew they weren't
real....but bought them anyway, and some refused to have anything to
do with them.

The Official Star Wars fan club actually purchased several thousand
of the fake Style A's back in the late 1980's believing they were
real. They even distributed many of them to members!! As soon as
they found out they weren't authentic one sheets they stopped
distributing them and were most likely destroyed.

George Lucas eventually got wind of all this and went after the guy
who was selling them.

Usually, reprints are undersized. Not these. They all measure a full
27" x 41".

There are subtle printing defects / differences between originals
and reprints. On the Style A there is a small "hair" right below
Luke's belt,
on the Style B Teaser the GAU printing union logo on the bottom
border is missing, and on the Style C there is a small "hair" on
Leia's back and on R2D2's foot. The paper quality is first rate as well, we see
virtually no real difference when comparing fakes to originals
except that the paper may be ever so slightly thicker on the fakes.
Some have said that the fakes have a different sheen. If they do it
is very slight.

As of January 2013, these 3 fakes are still being sold on eBay
(described as originals) by several shady poster dealers. Prices are
usually between $100.00 to $200.00. (Original rolled near mint
unused Star Wars one sheets routinely sell for over $1000.00). These
dealers usually swear up and down that the reprints are
real.....that they are an alternate printing, or from a warehouse
find, or a garbage run from the factory etc. Their excuse
always seems plausible. They know they are not real, yet they really
don't care.

Since word about these fakes has spread and it has become common
knowledge in the collecting community (and thus, more difficult to
sell), these shady dealers have begun to lightly fold them, put pin
holes in them, and even get them linen backed to try and make them
appear more authentic.

Why doesn't eBay stop them? Ebay is in no position to be the "poster
police". How do you expect them to determine what is real and what
is not? Unless they are ever contacted by Lucasfilm (which we really
don't see happening as they closed the book on this 20 years ago)
the rip off of new Star Wars collectors will continue.

Every now and then a collector will send us one of these fakes for
us to put on consignment. We will sell it for what it truly
is.....properly described as NOT an original movie poster. We get
requests all the time from collectors who would like to see one in
person, to have one for reference.

We have put a few small 1/2" x 2" ink stamps on the back of each
one that says: "THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER".

Again, these are THE SAME EXACT posters currently being sold by
others on eBay wrongly described as originals.

This is an extremely high quality bootleg poster. It has
fooled practically every major auction house in the past as well
as most of the top poster dealers.

EXTREMELY RARE TO FIND THIS POSTER
ROLLED!!!
It is very rare to find this National Screen Service (NSS) version of this
poster rolled versus folded. Unlike studio-issued versions of these posters,
which can be found rolled on occasion, NSS versions were almost universally sent
folded within film canisters to theaters. Only a small handful of NSS rolled
posters can be found, and they always fetch a high premium because because they
are prized by knowledgeable collectors as a supreme
rarity.

This poster has a few minor imperfections. Not in perfect
shape
but still very presentable.

Gently used and well
preserved. Very little general storage wear. Pin holes, no tears, no tape.

FOR THIS POSTER
WE WILL ONLY ACCEPT CASH, BANK WIRE, CHECKS, CASHIER'S CHECKS, OR MONEY ORDERS. Full
return

US 1sh Style D 27x41
Original Movie Poster Folded
NM
C9 $495.00
SOLD Special Order

Guaranteed to be
an original theatrical release movie poster issued at the time of the films
initial release. The 30x40 was not printed in any where near the
quantities of the regular US one sheet and is
EXTREMELY RARE COMPARED TO A ONE SHEET. A vertical format
American movie poster printed on a very heavy card stock
material. Most 30" x 40"’s feature the same artwork as the one sheet and were
issued rolled to the theatre exchanges. The National Screen Service number is
normally found on the side on the poster, as opposed to the lower bottom as is
the case with one-sheets. VERY difficult to find in Near Mint condition because
the card stock can crease easily. Studios have stopped issuing these.

This poster has been GEL
SIZED. This is a proprietary
minimally invasive poster conservation method. When a poster has gone
through the Gel Sizing process, it has been flattened, cleaned and
de-acidified. The paper is impregnated with a purified form of sea
gelatin which greatly strengthens the paper and physically eliminates
creases and fold lines. It is NOT mounted to anything once completed, and
the finished poster will remain dimensionally stable even after exposure to
changes in atmospheric conditions. This
poster now appears Near Mint!

The STYLE D is extremely rare in
itself. A rolled cardboard stock version is near impossible to find since
30x40's were not printed in any where near the quantities of the regular US
one sheet. This poster is EXTREMELY RARE. It is in terrific shape and is
being stored flat.

EXTREMELY RARE COMPARED TO A ONE SHEET.Primarily
offered for major motion pictures only, these were displayed both inside and
outside of theaters A 40x60 would cost the theater up to 20 times as much as a
one sheet to rent. For most titles only a few hundred were usually printed, and
it was only printed once. Unlike the one sheet which was printed in quantities
of 10,000 and up. VERY difficult to find in Near Mint condition
because the card stock can crease easily.

Unused!! Well
preserved. Small 1/2" border tear on lower right near Chewbacca repaired with
acid free removable tape on back.

Ralph McQuarrie.

...“It was
done as a symbol for the film—to go on film cans and letters. George [Lucas]
had had one for American Graffiti, and wanted one for Star Wars.” ...“It
was done while we were working on costumes,” said McQuarrie. “This was how
we first pictured Han Solo. It could be a sort of Luke character, but I
think it’s more like Han. Anyway, George decided that Han Solo should be a
more relaxed character, and his costume was changed. But this decal was
designed before the change.”

This is a vintage group of

This poster is extremely hard

According to starwarsmovieposter.com there were only about 200 (yes 200!)
printed and most were never distributed (there is no way to confirm this info.,
but we have no reason to doubt it). This is given 9 out of 10

This ISRAEL Hebrew original 1977
issue one sheet is the
only one we have ever seen. We have never even seen another one for sale ANYWHERE! It was acquired in 1982 from Israel by the owner and
is part of his personal collection. Quite possibly the rarest one sheet sized
original issue poster for Star Wars. In 1977 the population of Israel was only
3.6 million and there were not a lot of movie theaters. Very few of these were printed, and even fewer survived.
No one knows for sure how many are left, but we have spoken with several
experts, and the consensus is that there are probably less than 15 of these in
existence. Another photo of it framed. The owner had it linen backed, but it has since been removed from
the canvas/linen and placed back in the conservation frame.

This is a
beautiful example of an original ROLLED movie poster (3 piece set) UNUSED from the 1977
George Lucas classic "Star Wars". This movie was not released in Russia until
1990. This is from that FIRST RELEASE. Made up of 3 separate pieces, measures exactly
33 1/4" x 61 1/2" when together. These
do NOT show up very often in ANY condition. You will have trouble finding a
nicer one.

This is the famous
"COWBOY" style poster.....THE
RAREST OF ALL THE RUSSIAN STAR WARS POSTERS.
Star Wars has been described as a "Space Western". This is a favorite among hard core Star Wars
collectors. There are 4 styles of original Star Wars Russian movie posters. All of them are much harder to find
than virtually any of the U.S. or other international original movie posters
because they were printed in so few quantities. The new Star Wars Poster book
rates this in its HIGHEST category in terms of scarcity and value appreciation
(10 out of 10 stars).
We have never before seen this poster for sale ANYWHERE!
There are virtually NO RECORDED SALES of this poster....it is that scarce!!

When buying
collectibles it is always wise to buy "the best of the best" as they stand a
greater chance of appreciation. This poster is considered to be within that
class and is definitely INVESTMENT QUALITY.

RETURN OF THE JEDImovie
poster film poster one sheet

We can't be certain EXACTLY what this is, but in our opinion it is some sort
of test proof. It definitely is from the right time period as it has
aged a bit with the paper not being bright white (this can't really be seen
in the photo). There are some minor signs of use including a little bit of
scotch tape residue on the back and a little bit of border wear/wrinkles. A
2" tear on the top border has been repaired by us on the back with acid free
archival removable tape. This is only the second one that we know of ever to surface!!
This is similar to the style A Recalled U.S. "Gone With the Wind" one sheet,
however there is some additional artwork that DOES include Billy Dee
Williams!!! Extraordinarily rare. A perfect candidate for
Linen Backing.

The "Gone with the Wind" Style A
one sheet was recalled. It is a beautiful poster and highly coveted by
collectors. It is much rarer
than the other versions. This poster has been reprinted a few times. This is a
genuine unused theater issued one sheet.

Here is how you can tell the
difference between reprints and originals:

Reprints are
27 x 40, originals are 27x41. Measures exactly 27 1/8" x 41 1/16". Some reprints will say
ZIG ZAG in the bottom credits area, this is the company that made
them. No reprint for this title
has duplicated in the bottom border the GAU logo and the NSS paragraph
like the original US one sheet has. The original has slightly
clearer printing than the reprints. Reprints are actually on
a better quality paper than the original, slightly thicker and glossier
than the original. The International original
US one sheet (see below) is identical except it lacks the PG Ratings
box, it is on a thicker paper, and it does not have the nss paragraph.

"Gone with the Wind" Style A Recalled $1195.00
SOLD Special Order

An extremely popular
and very rare HORIZONTAL format
American movie poster measuring approx. 41" x 54". Subway sheets are printed on a
thicker paper than one-sheets. Most contain the same artwork as the advance
materials, and are almost always issued as "advances." They are most often found
in subway displays. These posters can be either rolled or folded. Some
collectors like the subway sheet because there are fewer of them released. They
are somewhat large and cumbersome, but because they are printed on a thick
paper, they are more durable. Still used
today. HIGHLY DESIRED DUE TO ITS HORIZONTAL FORMAT AND EXTREME SCARCITY!

BEWARE OF FAKE EMPIRE STRIKES
BACK INSERTS

The bootleg/restrike is on the
right. There are many subtle differences, most notably: the colors are a little
different and the artwork is cropped just a little tiny bit. Using "minty white"
as the only clue can be misleading, because as you can see in our photo....the
original looks whiter than the bootleg!! Both posters were photographed together
with no digital editing or alteration. As we have said before, the quality of
these restrikes is near perfect. This is because they come from the same NSS
printing facility as the originals, only they were made after hours many years
later (sometime in the mid to late 1980's).

The title "The Empire Strikes Back" is printed in white, not silver. All
other Vader advance one sheets have the title printed in silver. Most likely
an early test printing. This is a rare rolled NSS version! This is the only

Description from Bruce H:
"Note that this poster is clearly not the regular U.S. "style B" one-sheet.
It has exactly the same image, and yet the coloring is different (on the
regular U.S. "style B" one-sheet, the color is a light sky blue, while on
this poster, the color is a darker lavender type color). The printing in the
bottom border is also different. The title is on the lower left on this
poster while it is on the lower right of the other poster, and this poster
says "ONE SHEET B", while the regular poster says "STYLE B", and they are in
different positions. Finally, the regular poster has an NSS number in the
bottom right, and this one does not. This is because this poster was printed
for internal use by 20th Century-Fox and LucasFilm, and these posters were
never distributed to theaters. This information was confirmed for us by
Steve Sansweet and Pete Vilmur, the authors of the "Star Wars Poster Book",
and they say that there are far fewer of these posters than there are of the
NSS version."

Minor wrinkles
throughout with light edge wear and storage wear. Top right corner missing.
This is the only proof we have ever seen for this poster. We have never seen
another for sale anywhere!

Before a poster was printed in
large quantities, the printer would print a limited number of test posters.
Commonly, they would leave the color chart on the edge of the poster (which
explains why the poster measures 36" x 46"). These would then be shown to
people in a position to "OK" them. Once they were approved, the final
posters would be printed and the proofs normally were destroyed. A printer's
proof is far more rare than a regular one sheet poster, and there is no fear
of purchasing a reproduction.

This comes
straight from a former employee of Continental Litho. in Cleveland. He saved
a few posters that he liked as they came off the press. This is as close to
MINT as can be!! There are a TON of fake "MINTY

this poster is not really known for sure. No one can say how many were

version was printed first, and then immediately changed to dark blue-ish
purple. Another story is that it was a mistake made at one of the NSS

US 1982 RE RELEASE 30X40 ROLLED CARDBOARD STOCK "Gone with the Wind" NM C9 $195.00
SOLD Special Order

This is what
all you STAR WARS
fans have been waiting for! This is a genuine 27"x41" U.S. one sheet limited
edition gold mylar movie poster issued by Kilian Enterprises for the 10th
anniversary. We have been told that this was either a limited edition of 250 or
500 made, but we cannot confirm this info.. Either way, these are very highly
sought after by collectors and do not show up for sale often.

This poster is
incredibly rare! From our own collection. Personally acquired by David Lieberman
from Israel back in 1983. This one is not perfect with extra folds and 2 tiny
areas rubbed from the surface. Still displays beautifully.

Minor
wrinkles. This proof has another proof on the reverse for a different movie
"ANDROID". Picture
of back side. The final poster has a silver grey metallic ink for the title.
The title on this proof is white.

We recently
acquired an original distributor box of 50 of these!! It is amazing what can
still be found at yard sales!! This box has a mailing label from GORE GRAPHICS.
Gore Graphics printed most of the original Star Wars trilogy posters. It is
amusing to see that this box also has the words BLUE HARVEST.
Blue Harvest was the top secret code name for this film while it was in
production.

Unused!! Rolled,
never folded. Well preserved. Very little general storage wear. There are a few
places along the white border where there are some wrinkles. They are hard to
see in the photo. They won't be seen when framed. No tears, no tape, no pin
holes, no writing, no stains.

1983 Episode VI

US Insert Style A Original
Movie Poster 14" x 36" $255.00 SOLD Special Order

The title of Episode Six was
originally "Revenge of the Jedi". It was changed to "Return of the Jedi" just
prior to the films release in 1983.

The "Revenge of the Jedi" posters along with the Star
Wars style A are the most copied, commemorated, and counterfeited movie posters
in history.

There are at least four different
bootlegs/reprints of the "Revenge of the Jedi Teaser Advance One Sheet".
We know of three different bootlegs of the dated version, and one of the "no
date" version.

There were two original versions
of the Revenge of the Jedi Teaser Advance One Sheet printed in 1982. Both
versions are documented on the Lucasfilm authorized 1985 Official Star Wars
Checklist poster. The first "NO DATE" version was printed only once and was
issued exclusively to movie theaters. This version was issued early on before
20th Century Fox had a release date for the film, so the poster does not have
"Coming May 25, 1983 to your galaxy." at the bottom. This version is much, much
rarer than the second poster with the date. Both posters were issued rolled and
folded.

The Official Star Wars Checklist
poster states that there were only a small handful of the "NO
DATE" posters
made, then Fox decided on a release date for the film, and a second version of
the poster WITH THE DATE was printed. Shortly after the second poster was
printed Lucas decided to change the title to "Return of the Jedi", and the
poster was recalled/pulled from advertising use. Lucas took the
remaining left over stock WITH THE DATEand issued them for
purchase through the Star Wars fan club directly to collectors.

According to the L.A. Times,
quoting Kelly Miller (national advertising production manager at 20th Century
Fox at the time), there were about 8800 Revenge of the Jedi posters printed.
6800 of these went to the Star Wars fan club where they were sold for $9.50
each. The Times did not say how many were dated and how many were undated, but
other sources have speculated that only about 200 (some say less than 100) of the "NO DATE" version
were printed.

Because of all the fakes out
there, it is EXTREMELY difficult to find a REAL one. We have handled dozens over
the years so we know exactly what to look for. The first bootlegs appeared early
on in 1983, just a few months after they were recalled. These bootlegs are more
than 20 years old now. Many people who have them are convinced that their
bootlegs are real because they got them so long ago around the time of the films
release. We have people sending us these fakes constantly for authentication. It
is terrible having to break the news to them.

Since there are at least four
different bootlegs it is hard for most people to tell if they have an original.
One of the first bootlegs was copied from a folded poster so the fold lines are
evident. Some smart counterfeiters then folded these to try and pass them off as
real. Many times the fold lines don't match up. Other bootlegs are undersized.
Another version has a lighter area on the bottom right corner described as
"clouds" by some people. All bootlegs are on different paper and the colors and
sharpness are "off". For an expert, when compared side by side with a known
original, they are easy to spot.

Pictures of the "cloudy" bootleg.
This one is undersized and measures 26 3/4" x 39 15/16". It is printed on
slightly thicker than normal paper.

This poster ranks right up there
with the Star Wars Mylar and Happy Birthday one sheets, as well as holding its
own against the original Concert poster. If you can find a real one it is well
worth cherishing.

A few very light moisture
marks/ripples, barely visible and won't be seen when framed. Please excuse the
glare on the corners of the poster, we were having problems with our lighting
when we took the photo. Unused!! No tears, no tape, no pin holes.

This "no date" version is EXTREMELY RARE.
There were thousands issued of the regular dated version while there were only a
few hundred (some say less than a hundred) of the no date version.
Issued before the regular Revenge posters. Again, very, very few were printed
and they rarely surface.
